Aussois - Chemin du Grand Bonheur |
|
Were you tempted by the last route? Add
to it by escaping towards Haute-Maurienne for something really
unforgettable !
Both loops make a long outing on the famous Chemin du Petit Bonheur
on the banks of the Ar, under the forest trees, and discover the
Sardières monolith (93-meter high pudding stone needle). Your
efforts will be rewarded !

Difficulty

Take the trail along the right bank of the Arc
towards Le Villaron. Pass the chapel and go on to La Goulaz, Bessans,
Val Cenis, Lanslevillard, Val Cenis, Lanslebourg and Termignon
la Vanoise.
Take
the road across the village and, after the Weeper's statue (memorial)
and a house on the right, turn right on to the old military road
that will lead you to Sollières-Sardières. Return to Aussois is
effected via circuit n°1 (green) . The route can also be done
from Aussois to Bonneval.
Take route n°6 all the way. In Bramans, cross the village to the
campsite to follow the Chemin du Petit Bonheur to reach Termignon
la Vanoise. From Termignon, same route the other way round to
Bonneval-sur-Arc !

Take A43 all the way, then RN 6 to Lanslebourg
and D 902 to Bessans and Bonneval-sur-Arc.
